And it remains a question until recently, perhaps like a month back. I can't no longer pinch my 'fat'. My belly is all filled up. The bubble this TinyTeeny is in, gets bigger pushing away fats (distributing them, rather) to all the right direction. But still, according to some (families, colleagues), "Where's your pregnant belly?"
So one of the highlight from my latest check up was when I asked the doctor, "Am I not showing enough, is the size of the baby alright?" Turned out, the baby is ALRIGHT. When we scanned, she was all over - we couldn't get a nice hanging out picture of her in my womb! (I'm collecting sonogram pics, obviously) The doctor said, it's just the build of my body. Being plus size, I guess I'm really good at hiding my tummy. I have blouses that are belly friendly... So I don't show much. Then, the tummy was just fat. Now, the fat get a human friend that is tinier version of the body owner. Hihihi...
My clothes get snuggier around the belly now. I can no longer wear my working pants, and all the maternity pants available in store were up to size XL (Mothercare sells up to size UK16, but I never tried) I'm glad I have so many dresses bought prior pregnancy, they are maternity friendly - So all is good! Alhamdulillah...
It's quite magical, being pregnant. I know I'm 5 years behind but Allah's timing is perfect! She is kicking and moving about nowadays :) till next time you guys!
